Cutting hair since fifteen. Downtown since 2020.
/ The Origin
Larry Glasser has been cutting hair since fifteen — first out of his family's basement, then through an Associate degree in fine arts, then a BA in graphic design. The drawing eye and the cutting hand are the same eye and the same hand.
Nine years in Mt. Pleasant, building a chair-side practice across two decades of work. In 2020 — through the long March-to-May closure that reset the city — Larry opened the downtown shop in the former Carolina's Restaurant space at 10 Exchange Street, Suite 203.
One chair. Appointment-only. Blues or classic rock playing in the background. A small shelf of whiskey, pomade, and vintage tools that look like they came from a different century. The room is quiet. The cut is considered. You sit, you have a drink, and your grooming is in good hands.
/ His philosophy
"A good haircut is like a custom suit that's well contoured."
